That's a fine way to put it!

What about the guys that day trade for fun? I mean there is The Street, Motley Fool, ect........but it would be cool to hear some thoughts or get speculation from car guys, not from stiffs in suits.

I don't know - prolly

See -- the thread title is INVESTING 102.... if you go back and read from the beginning you'd see why it's called that... and not GAMBLING 101


Jokers and fools day trade... rich guys get rich because they INVEST.... there is a magnitude of order of difference. If you want to - you can start a Day Trading thread and I'm sure you'd get some followers and plenty of discussion on that topic.

What Greg is trying to say is you have to understand the tools you are using to get the results that you want.

I don't know anyone that trades for fun. It's about investing and collecting a pay check when you are retired.

Read the thread and you'll soon get the point around page 275.

The tools and advice are there you just have to use them to make the choice of what suites your needs.
